Diff & Gearbox Design, Modification, Manufacture & Repair

Stocking performance parts is simple. Unleashing their potential for your machine takes knowledge, skill and experience.

With thousands of hours of performance engineering under their belts, the Ozdiff performance engineering team are experts on the tools as well, and offer services including gear lapping, diff and axle straightening, custom tailshaft design and many more.

The Ozdiff performance engineering team build to quality, not price, and are backed by Ozdiff Performance Product's satisfaction and performance guarantee.

Axle Stud Pattern Changes

When changing wheel manufacturers, there's a fair chance you'll need to change your axle's stud pattern. Ozdiff Performance Products can redrill and modify your existing axle heads to match the pattern of your new rims.

Axle Re-splining

In some instances axle modifications can reduce or remove your axle's splines altogether. If your budget doesn't extend to new replacement axles, Ozdiff's axle resplining service can cut new splines into your modified axle to ensure perfect fit and performance from your existing hardware.

Crack Testing

The stresses and forces your tailshaft operates in can produce barely visible cracks in your driveshaft. Left untreated, these cracks can compromise your driveline's performance and may even cause catastrophic driveline failure. Ozdiff's dye-penetrating crack testing is a sure fire way to identify the presence of hair line cracks and imperfections and guarantee your shafts integrity and continued performance.

Custom Diffs

If you've added or removed horsepower and/or increased the torque through your driveline, then chances are you'll soon need to upgrade your diff to cope with the new forces or reduce your operating weight. Ozdiff's custom diff service can optimize your driveline by tailoring a housing, ratio and carrier to suit your new requirements.

With extensive experience in OPM, LSD, mini and full spool diffs plus axles, tyres and suspension, the Ozdiff performance team have the answer for your custom diff problem.

Custom Shafts

If you've added power, changed your transmission, upgraded your diff or altered the angle of your driveline, your tailshaft will no longer be optimised for your vehicle. Left unchanged your unmatched shaft can cause costly premature driveline wear and even complete failure.

Ozdiff's custom tailshaft service identifies your vehicles requirements, then designs, builds and fits a complete tailored tailshaft solution that matches your driveline's power, torque, weight and angular requirements and restores your vehicles' driveline to optimal performance.

Ozdiff's custom tailshaft solutions can be team numbered for ease of servicing and are available for all shaft applications including:

  • on road
  • off road
  • racing
  • marine
  • industrial

Diff & Axle Inspection and Straightening

Sometimes wear, tear and bends in your driveline are obvious. Sometimes they're not. Ozdiff's diff and axle inspection services employs state-of-the-art computer controlled straightening machinery to accurately measure and straighten damaged and worn diff housings, axles and tailshafts; in many cases returning them to their optimal shape without the use of heat.

If you suspect your housing, axle or shaft may be need straightening, contact us to arrange an inspection by one of our performance diff experts.

Driveline Angular Analysis

If your vehicle suffers from vibration, shudder or excessive noise, your driveline may be out of angular alignment or be incorrectly phased. As well as reducing your overall performance, driveline misalignment increases the stresses on your vehicle's driveline, and causes excessive and uneven wear and possibly even complete failure.

Ozdiff's driveline angular analysis service leverages more over 30 years of expert underbody experience together with state-of-the-art computer controlled machinery to accurately measure and straighten your driveline componentry, ensuring each and every part is working within its optimal tolerance and providing you with maximum endurance and performance.

Dynamic Tailshaft Balancing

Ozdiff's dynamic tailshaft balancing and driveshaft remanufacturing service uses state-of-the-art computer controlled high-velocity balancing equipment to ensure your tailshaft is straight, correctly phased and completely balanced.

As subtleties such as type and depth of weld, or minute variances in forged driveline componentry can cause slight variations in even the most standard and common of shaft assemblies, each shaft is unique and must be treated individually. Every shaft Ozdiff produces is computer balanced prior to leaving the workshop.

Driveshaft Reconditioning

Ozdiff's driveshaft reconditioning service is ideal for driveshafts that are worn, slightly bent, or have small dents. Using the same computer controlled process as Ozdiff's dynamic tailshaft balancing, Ozdiff's tailshaft experts can recondition and restore aged shafts to near new condition extending their life and performance.

Gear Lapping

For New Gears: Ozdiff's state-of-the-art gear lapping machine is an ideal way to ensure maximum life out of your new crown wheel and pinion set. By running the pair together under pressure and through an abrasive compound the gear lapper meshes your new crown wheel and pinion together to produce a matched pair of gears that will wear less and perform better than a non-lapped gear set.

Restorative Gear Lapping: In the same way gear lapping meshes new gear sets together to provide a flawless mating surface, it can also be used to restore and improve the matched performance of used and damaged gear sets. Whilst lapping is unable to reclaim metal, it will be able to maximise any residual life in your gear set so you can save your hard earned for another day ... or another mod!
